hello,
I have this in a file
server_name=DB1
hostname=db1
I want to change hostname value to `hostname`. Any idea?
and server_name value to toUPPER (`hostname`). Any idea?
thanks

$ HN=`hostname`; awk 'BEGIN{OFS=FS="="}$1=="server_name"{$2=toupper("'"$HN"'")}; $1=="hostname" {$2="'"$HN"'"} {print}' file
//Jadu
thanks but the toupper does not seem to work:
HN=`hostname`; awk 'BEGIN{OFS=FS="="}$1=="server_name"{$2=toupper("'"$HN"'")}; $1=="hostname" {$2="'"$HN"'"} {print}' text
gives:
server_name=db2
hostname=db2
could you please advise?
With ksh ans sed:
hn="$(hostname)"
typeset -u sn="$hn"
sed "/^server_name=/s/=.*$/=$sn/;/^hostname=/s/=.*$/=$hn/" filename > _tmp_
Then if correct mv _tmp_ to filename.
With zsh and sed:
hn=$(hostname) sn=$hn:u
sed "/^server_name=/s/=.*$/=$sn/;/^hostname=/s/=.*$/=$hn/" filename > _tmp_
